Hello Liza, Thank you for writing such an interesting Article. I happened to come across your article when I was looking for societies that practice a matrilineal system. Also it helped clarify the difference between Matriarchal and Matrilineal - an important difference that is not understood by many. In India there is a state named Kerala that practiced a matrilineal system for decades and was considered to be ahead of its times.
